## About

```text
At USBank, I manage Azure, on-premises, and hybrid Kubernetes platforms and automate delivery with Azure DevOps YAML, Terraform, and Helm. I developed reusable Terraform modules and ARM templates that shortened new-environment provisioning from several days to under four hours.

I also implemented Argo CD GitOps workflows and established observability with Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Prometheus, Grafana, and Dynatrace. When production incidents affect ingress, DNS, storage, or deployments, I investigate root causes and work with application and infrastructure teams on preventive actions.

Previously, at Wipro, I designed highly available AWS environments and built CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and Azure DevOps. At Get Software and Karvy, I supported production reliability and release engineering through Kubernetes, infrastructure automation, monitoring, and incident response.
